A new venue for the last race of this season’s Southern Cross Country League and later in the year too due to the cancellations for poor weather in January and February.

The early April date made for blue skies, firm ground and warm weather albeit with a bit of wind.  Definitely a change from the typical cross-country scene which added a different twist to a superb event at Alver Valley Country Park.  The course was enjoyable throughout, the volunteers were brilliant and everything was delivered seamlessly.  An outstanding first outing for the venue and huge thanks to Fareham Running Club for putting on such a well-run and memorable XC race.

Lots of photos available on the Liss Runners Southern XC WhatsApp group.
